“Wait Megan isn't today a holiday in America?”Chase asked.
“Its a holiday everywhere but we only celebrate it in America,”I shot back.
We were all walking in the city. Well all of us but Conner and Marni, today was their Anniversary so its just me, Chase, Josh, Crissa and Kaitlyn. We've been walking through Central London around where Chase took me the first time I saw London.
“Its Independence Day, The 4th of July, barbecues all day, pool parties then fireworks everywhere, parades its really fun,”I explain.
“Wow quite a ‘shebang’”Chase commented. I laugh,
“Here we call it Loss Colony Day,”Conner quipped and everyone laughed.
“Then lets Celebrate!”Kaitlyn exclaimed.
“alright for Independence Day, well celebrate for Megan,”Josh said. “I know a great place.”Chase said.
About half an hour later we were taking our seats at the RiverSide Cafe. Its only a few blocks from the Chase Chronicle Church.
“I love it here, you get to look at the Thames.”Chase explained.
“but its night,”Kaitlyn chimed in.
“At night sometimes in this area they light these little tea candels and let them float along the river,”Crissa finished. It was pretty.
“So home what would you be doing?”Kaitlyn asked.
“Probably at my friend Leslie's BBQ Bash she has every year, she lives on the ocean then they set fireworks at 9 and its amazing, or Id be with my boyfriend Mark, wed be on the boardwalk or just walk along the beach,”I say thinking about it, then realize where Im at and I suddenly snap back to reality. “oh, um, how about you Crissa?”I ask quickly trying not to look at Chase. “Um well with my dad I guess, oh wed be watching movies we love to,”She finishes. “Id be playing with little sister or studying,”Josh stated.
“I wish I were home in France with my parents, not stuck here working,”Kaitlyn added bitterly.
“How about you chase?”Crissa asked. Chase seemed deep in thought. “Oh um Id be drawing, I guess,”he seemed unsettles in the seat next to mine. I touch his arm and point to the water.
“Look,”
We glance over and they lite the part of the river next to the restaurant. A few couples are in boats and a guitarist is playing a love song. Its a perfect setting, a beautiful night, too bad I wrecked it with my big mouth. Then out of the blue big fireworks go up in they sky. Wow over the Thames, its beautiful. I put on a spectacle look.
“Wait, you know they would light fireworks, you brought me, I mean us here to see them, for me.”
I smile looking in his deep amber eyes. He smiled, his dimples peek through his smile. I wrap my arms around him and squeeze, he does the same, and even though I cant do more than that, hugging him felt right, and I wish I could have stayed in that moment, forever.
